Three of Swords
The Fool now journeys to the Three of Swords and finds heartbreak, tears, upset, and disappointment on his travels. Words and actions have caused pain, yet they bring truth and liberation, wanted or not. He feels angry and lost, and he needs to vent these emotions in a healthy way in order to move on. He has suffered a loss and needs time to take each tear as it comes.
Here we find sadness. We can feel enraged, full of anger, down, miserable, or grieving the losses and pains we have encountered.
It’s ok to feel sad, to cry and rant, to rage and "feel", even if we would rather not. Heartbreak, heartache, and tears are brought to the forefront as a situation will cause emotional distress.
We don’t hold it in here; we let it out and give the frustrations time and space to be vented, as our disappointments need to be expressed. Life can feel unfair, just as it can be unfair, and we need time to sit with those feelings and work our way through them right now.
Life is not all gains; it comes with its fair share of losses, and you may be feeling the outcome of an old loss or a new one through disruptions and losses grave and small that hurt deeply.
Both what has happened, been said, done, or been forced on you will leave you hurt, as will the consequences that have been left for you to deal with.
If sadness arises, stay with it for a while.
In all lives, rain must fall; don't bottle it up.

Understanding Tarot. I thought I could just start this review with ‘with over 400 pages this book didn’t just land on my doorstep, it landed with a thud, to then go on to round it all up in a nice quick paragraph. But no, I’m not even 50 pages in and Pam’s descriptions of each card is meticulous. To read it you feel yourself as part of the card and near enough to touch everything she describes, from the reasons of the colours of their clothing I love how that is so important and will make me look at tarot cards so differently , to everything else in the background, nothing is missed , actually more things are found in the cards I’d never seen before . I’m not going to flick through to the end to say it was all good! It’s full of history, numerology and heaps I haven’t even got to yet, Pam writes with passion and enthusiasm in a way that reads exciting so I’m going to enjoy every page. I know there is other information at the back for everything Tarot and I will read that at my leisure . I will finish with ‘in a nutshell’ it’s fab . Read it and enjoy x
